Her Lovely Champion

Sapphic Lady Knights, Book 2

De: Mariah Rae Birch

Narrado por: Kimberly M. Wetherell

A disillusioned lady knight and the princess she never meant to rescue.

Imprisoned in a witch’s tower eighteen years ago, Princess Eliza did not expect to still be waiting. Now past the age of thirty, with several alarming silver strands in her hair, the rescue attempts are growing rarer, and her only companions remain several well-loved bookshelves and her own increasingly lonely mind.

Destitute and out of options, Sir Kaylen accepts the king of Alludan’s doomed quest (and reward) to rescue his daughter. What is meant to be her final act to help her family goes all wrong when she arrives at the witch’s tower to discover, not the deadly hydra waiting for her, but something else entirely.

Together, the weathered knight and sheltered princess face a perilous journey back through the monster-ridden outerlands to civilization, where the monsters only become more human.

As ill-timed attraction ignites, the lines between them blur. Eliza and Kaylen each have expectations tearing them apart. They were never supposed to meet. Will the lady knight who accidentally saved the princess get to keep her?

The second in a series of stand-alone stories set in the same world, this slow-burn, steamy queer romantasy is a sapphic reimagining of classic fairytale tropes. It can be enjoyed alone, or in combination with the first book in the Sapphic Lady Knights series, Her Pretty Knight. This story is intended for adult audiences.

Excellent characters, interesting storyline

The characters are wonderful and full of depth - as people are. I especially appreciate that they are not "dense;" but are intelligent and "catch on" quickly, making various decisions. The book is a nice balance between action and the love story. Kimberly Wetherell is a superb reader, capturing the accents and using excellent prosody to enhance the dialogue and descriptions. And, she can sing!
I highly recommend this book, as a stand alone story, but also in the series. Keep 'em coming, Mariah!

Great Series!

Such a beautiful series. Love hearing about Lady knights. Hope there will be more stories on the way!
